しばらく“アモイさん”のお話を伺った後、ダバオ市カリナンにある「フィリピン日本歴史博物館」に向かった。フィリピン日系人会学校カリナン校敷地内にあるこの資料館は、ダバオッチの過去の記事にもあるとおり、「フィリピン日系人会によって1994年、日本の人工物の保存、日本とダバオ市の歴史的つながりを後世に残すことを目的に開館された」ものであり、1900年代初頭以降の日本人のダバオ移住の歴史を記録し，ダバオと日本人の関わり・歴史を学ぶことができる。
2020年1月24日のダバオッチの記事によると、「同資料館は1994年に建設されたが老朽化が進んでおり、昨年9月から今年1月まで改装工事が行われた」らしい。私たちが訪れたときは、その古びた建物は、他に訪問者もなく、まるで時が止まったかのような静寂の中にあった。（つづく）

Thank you for your continued support of Davao’s portal site “Davaotchi”. “Davaotchi” is an information portal about Davao that has been running for about seven and a half years since September 2016 with the aim of conveying the charms of Davao to Japanese people in Japanese and making them more aware of Davao. Thanks to everyone’s support, we have gained a certain amount of recognition, such as being featured in a magazine, and many people have started to hear the term “Dabaotchi”. On the other hand, we have prioritized the mission of conveying the charms of Davao to as many Japanese people as possible, so there is almost no profitability, and we have allocated the profits generated from other businesses to the site management, but we have no plans for the future. As a result of careful consideration of scalability and development, Davaotchi has decided to recruit supporters who can support Davaotchi in order to better manage the site. We considered charging for the site or introducing a subscription plan, but we wanted to deliver information about Davao to as many people as possible, so we decided to simply ask for support from Davaochi fans first. You can support us using PayPal or credit card (debit card) below. We look forward to your cooperation. See more news articles
